I saw dee lite at some rave way back when in the 90s, off of 495 somewhere, in a big field.  there was a stage and everything.  dc101 even talked about it.  lady miss kier was doing coke in front of everyone . . . allegedly.  I say that, because I did not see her do it, but was told by everyone, that she did.  the cops came and broke it up finally and some guy was crying because they took all his pot.

If Maggots and Juggalos can be friends, then there is hope for our country.

oh keef

Rap ? so many words, so little said,? laughs Richards, 71.

?What rap did that was impressive was to show there are so many tone-deaf people out there,? he says. ?All they need is a drum beat and somebody yelling over it and they?re happy. There?s an enormous market for people who can?t tell one note from another.?

well he's right... name the last rap album you loved? Tribe?


all he forgot to add is that they are stealing the riff from some song everyone already loves.

complaining that rappers are tone-deaf is missing the point about rap.  it's like saying that atonal jazz isn't melodic... no shit.  not supposed to be, nor trying to be.

Ardamus is going to be so mad the next time he shows up to de facto panhandle on here in hopes we'll see his shitty, shitty concert.

as Miles Davis wrote in his autobiography the minute Coltrane left his band and started with the weird free "jazz" shit like the 45 minutes of crap that is Ascension was when jazz died..

its different to play the same riff in your own way... with different recording facilities, equipment etc...as part of a different song... than to take an actual recording and simply place your own words over it...

the concept of the Stones taking a riff that sounded like Muddy Waters or whoever, or Mick Jagger singing like a dead-on Don Covay, is different than Vanilla Ice taking the keyboard and bass from under pressure and singing his banalities over it..

I have a wonderful cd by the Hellacopters (HighVisibility) which at times sounds quite a bit like Thin Lizzy but its not Thin Lizzy... a lot of these rappers would simply take the Thin Lizzy recording and rap over it..

Now I happen to think a lot of early hip hop which relied on samples is tons of fun and I love it......but there is a difference between Deacon kind of ripping off the bass from Good Times for Another One Bites the Dust and the Sugarhill Gang simply rapping over Chic....or not?
